Sorry i dont read the my350z policy as often as you good job for enlightening us all with that fact.

 

I was simply giving an example (albeit extreme) of what Nissan would not cover. No offense meant.

 

Sorry about that. I'm just getting a little angry at everyone here just trying to act like their the most perfect people on this site. C'mon who in their life hasnt asked a question that has been answered already? Thanks anyway, I know what you mean.

 

I understand. You have to be thick-skinned to navigate your way around here.

BTW have we ever raced together at Cecil County Dragway, MD? And are you considering autocross at Ripken Stadium, Aberdeen, MD?

 

No aftermarket part will void your warranty unless Nissan proves it was directly responsible for the problem with your car.

That said, Nismo Type-S products are covered by the factory warranty, where as Type-R products are not. But I do beleive Type-R products do have a standard 1 year warranty against defect, it's just if something happens to it after the 1 year is up then the factory 3/36k car warranty will not cover it, where as the factory 3/36k car warranty would cover a Nismo Type-S product.

Just remember that every dealership is different, so if you mod your car heavily some dealers will try and tell you your warranty is voided without even seeing what caused the problem... They know they have to prove it was your aftermarket part that caused the problem, but if they can convience you otherwise and charge you lots of $$$ to fix it they will... Of course not all dealerships are shady like this and some are pretty cool like Performance Nissan...

 

davidv, I haven't actually ever gotten up to MD. So i don't think it was me who raced with you, but I am comsidering taking a trip up there maybe in the next month to try see what it's like up in MD, at both autocross and the strip. So maybe i'll see u up there when i go.

 

You have to take what others post in stride, since the emotional translation is for the most part misinterpreted or mis-posted. Also, make sure to read the complete site policy docs before quoting it next time.

 

This place is more fun than a dogfight.

 

And oh, by the way, I hear they're vicious over there at club rsx!

 

Sooner or later I'm going to find out about this inside joke

 

I pretty sure that's dead on.

 

haha do you not know about this or are you being sarcastic? because I can inform you

 

 

Whats the whole thing about the Club RSX it has nothing at all to do with our conversation. Think of My350z rule number 8.

 

Actually I'm going to have to plead ignorance ... you can PM me if you want.

 

I hear they're vicious over there at club RSX

 

From the Nissan USA website:
S-tune components are engineered for the enthusiast that drives on the street, which accounts for over 80% of all sport compact owners. S-tune components offer credible, measured increases in horsepower and road holding, but with an additional feature that the aftermarket can’t match–each S-tune component is covered by Nissan Parts and Accessory Limited Warranty–12 months/12,500 miles and up to 36 months/36,000 miles if installed at time of vehicle sale (like any other Genuine Nissan part or accessory).

R-tune is for the hard-core enthusiast or weekend racer. Street “civility” is compromised for maximum performance. These parts that are destined for racing or track days do not carry a warranty.
